Could be a number of things... Once it's running at speed (not idling, but driving down the road) does it run OK? Does it restart immediately once it has stalled? If it restarts OK, and runs OK at speed I would look at the electrical first before going down the fuel-supply route. I had a similar problem with my Raider a few years ago -- it would run fine, but idle roughly when stopped, and would sputter and choke (but wouldn't just stall out). It turned out to be a cracked rotor in the distributor that was providing an intermittant short to ground. I'd check plugs, wires, cap, rotor. Then I would probably turn to the IAC (Idle Air Control) motor and check the coil resistances to see if they are in spec. You should be able to search past posts for more information on all of these -- especially the IAC. There's lots of troubleshooting info, and lots of folks to help with it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Another good data point for us... where are you located? Outside temperature can play havoc with some of the sensors if they're going bad...
